Waterjet and suction combo aims to heal stubborn leg wounds
NCT ID NCT07653165
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This trial tests a two-step treatment for chronic lower leg wounds that have not healed for over a month. First, a motorized waterjet cleans the wound, then a motion-based suction device applies negative pressure to promote healing. The study includes 50 adults with various types of chronic leg wounds, such as diabetic ulcers or pressure injuries. The main goal is to see how much the wound size shrinks over time.
